For a particular page layout-

Field is Read only .

I am logging in as X Profile-


Profile does not have 'Edit Read only field' permission
Profile has Create /Edit/Delete permission but does not have View All/Modify All.


What could be the reason?

  • What permissions sets are active for the user? Is the field required? There is System Modify all, and object modify all - both are disabled?

You need to check the User profile

  • Go to one of the user records.
  • Click on their profile
  • Then click on the System Permission link
  • look for the 'Edit Read Only Fields' permission.

    @Samir- The profile does not have that permission.

    Permission sets are meant for extending the accessibility not restricting the accessibility. if the User's Profile does not have any access to the fields, then check the permission set

  • The OP says that this field is NOT checked on the profile. so no, it should not be an answer, but it's good to have it here.
